Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "DDaT26223 - Cloud Service Software" has been awarded by UK Research and Innovation, located at Polaris House, North Star Avenue, Swindon, United Kingdom. The procurement falls under the industry category of industry-specific software packages and computer-related professional services, with the contract specifically requiring cloud service software. This process reached the Award stage, and the contract is already active, covering the period from 12 December 2025 to 23 February 2026. The procurement method used was direct, below the threshold, and conducted without competition due to technical reasons, identifying Qualtrics LLC as the sole capable supplier for this requirement.

Companies with the capability to develop or deliver niche industry-specific software packages may find similar opportunities for collaboration with central government bodies like UK Research and Innovation.
